Onlinehandel: Mutmaßlicher Hackerangriff auf Modehändler Asos – Aktie bricht ein
Eine mysteriöse Push-Nachricht deutet auf einen Cyberangriff beim Onlineversand mit mehr als 17 Millionen registrierten Kunden hin. Details sind noch unklar.
London - British online fashion retailer Asos may have fallen victim to a hacking attack, according to reports. Thousands of users reportedly received a cryptic message on their smartphones with the title "Asos hacked." The company has not yet commented on the matter. According to news agency PA, the text displayed on users' phones read, "Dear data protection and IT responsible of Asos, we have fully compromised the Snowflake instance.
Contact us, otherwise we will publish it." Snowflake is a platform that allows businesses to store, combine, and analyze large amounts of data. Asos' share price plummeted more than twelve percent on Tuesday. The company's website initially appeared unaffected - the German website was still accessible in the afternoon of the following Tuesday. Asos, which includes brands such as Topshop and Miss Selfridge, has 17 million customers worldwide.
